  • Post-Migration Stressors and Mental and Physical Health among Refugees and Migrants in Need of Protection: A Mixed-Methods Analysis with Weekly Panel Data

    13周密集追踪揭示迁移后压力源而非仅创伤史对身心症状的作用,评估应前移。

    Why selected: 13周密集追踪与访谈揭示迁移后经济困境和歧视经心理困扰影响躯体症状的路径。

    Refugees and migrants in need of protection (MNP) experience high levels of psychological distress and somatic symptoms—physical symptoms linked to stress. While a large body of literature explores the relationship between pre-migration trauma and health, less is known about the role of post-migration stressors. Drawing on a novel 13-week intensive panel survey (N=247 individuals; 3,093 observations) and in-depth interviews (N=65) with MNP in Costa Rica, I examine the relationship among stressors, psychological distress, and physical symptoms in the receiving context. Quantitative analysis highlights that post-migration stressors, including economic precarity and discrimination, are strongly associated with heightened psychological distress, which in turn increases the likelihood of somatic symptoms. Interview data corroborate these results and further uncover how MNP perceive and articulate the process of somatization. This study advances understanding of the dynamic pathways linking stressors, psychological distress, and physical health, offering both theoretical insights and practical recommendations for service providers and policymakers.

  • Race-gender Disparities in the Criminalization and Medicalization of Mental Illness

    全国数据揭示精神疾病与逮捕、治疗关联的种族-性别分化,触及结构性不平等。

    Why selected: 平均 58 分,低于来源门槛 60

    How does race-gender status shape the medicalization and criminalization of those with mental illness? Using data from the 2022 wave of the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, I examine the associations between mental illness and arrest versus mental health treatment, and how these associations vary by race-gender status. I find significant patterns of difference among Black, Hispanic, and White men and women. Having mental illness is significantly, positively associated with arrest for all groups, however the magnitude of this relationship is statistically greater for Hispanic men. In addition, Hispanic men, along with Black men, have the smallest associations between mental illness and mental health treatment. Conversely, White women have the highest probability of mental health treatment compared to other race-gender groups, and the lowest probability of arrest. This pattern suggests Black and Hispanic men are disproportionately criminalized for their mental illness compared to other race-gender groups, while White women are most often medicalized. I discuss the implications of these findings and offer suggestions for future research.

  • Work-place Mismatch, Work-Family Conflict, and Psychological Well-being among Parents

    引入工作场所偏好错配视角,解释远程办公对父母心理健康影响不一致的原因。

    Why selected: 平均 55 分,低于来源门槛 60

    Remote and hybrid work have received much attention since the expansion of off-site work following the COVID-19 pandemic. Research on the effects of these arrangements on workers’ well-being, however, is mixed, likely because studies rarely account for workers’ workplace preferences. Using data from the 2023 wave of the Study on U.S. Parents’ Divisions of Labor During COVID-19 (SPDLC), we assess the association between work-place mismatch (misalignment between preferred and actual work locations) and both work-family conflict and psychological well-being (stress and depressive symptoms) among partnered working parents. Results suggest that most parents report some degree of work-place mismatch, with on-site workers reporting the highest work-place mismatch. We also find that work-place mismatch is positively associated with work-family conflict and negatively associated with parents’ psychological well-being. After accounting for work-place mismatch, parents who work on-site report lower work-family conflict and higher psychological well-being than remote and hybrid workers. Overall, results highlight the need to account for workers’ preferences in understanding the association between work conditions, work-family conflict, and psychological well-being.

  • The Complexity of Deep Acting: A Study of Emotional Labor in Frontline Human Service Work

    同时考察展示规则与深层扮演,细化情绪劳动损害心理健康的具体条件。

    Why selected: 平均 54 分,低于来源门槛 60

    This study examines the mental health impacts of emotional labor using an integrated analytical model that considers both job-level emotional labor requirements (negative and positive display rules) and psychological processes of emotion regulation (deep acting and surface acting). Using data from the 2021 Emotions Matter Survey ( n = 854) of mental health and library workers in Ontario, Canada, we explore the conditions under which emotional labor requirements negatively impact mental health. Our findings reveal that negative display rules significantly increase anxiety, and surface acting exacerbates both anxiety and anger. Contrary to expectations, deep acting did not serve as a protective factor for mental health but showed a complex interaction with negative display rules, worsening psychological states under high negative emotional demands. This research underscores the intricate nature of emotional labor’s impact on mental health, highlighting the need for context-specific strategies to support frontline workers in emotionally intensive roles.

  • Exploring Protean Career Attitudes and Career Success in U.S. Women

    把职业成功拆成八个维度,提示咨询中不能用单一满意度代替来访者的成功定义。

    Why selected: 平均 38 分,低于来源门槛 60

    Research on protean careers and career success has generally used unidimensional measures of career satisfaction, which ignore the complex ways individuals conceptualize career success. This study explored the multivariate relationship between the dimensions of protean career ( self-directed and values-driven ) and the dimensions of career success ( recognition , quality work , meaningful work , influence , authenticity , personal life , growth & development , and satisfaction ). A time-separated survey was used to collect data from a sample of U.S. women ( n = 377), and canonical correlation analysis was employed. Authenticity was removed due to lack of discriminant validity. The results revealed a statistically significant multivariate relationship between the protean career and career success dimensions, indicating which career success dimensions are most salient to each protean dimension. Overall, growth and development had the strongest shared variance, and recognition the weakest. For self-directed, growth and development and satisfaction had the strongest shared variance, whereas personal life was the strongest for values-driven. These findings demonstrate that the two protean dimensions are distinct and differentially related to specific domains of career success, providing support for use of multidimensional measures. Collapsing protean career or career success into a higher-order factor masks the distinct and meaningful relationships revealed when separately examining each dimension.

  • Adolescents’ Career Adaptability and Their Perceived Collective Contributions to Career Efficacy Over Time: A Network Analysis

    网络分析识别职业适应力各维度的差异关联,为青少年生涯干预提供精准靶点。

    Why selected: 平均 54 分,低于来源门槛 60

    Although career adaptability is well-established as pivot to adolescent career development, the network interconnections among its dimensions remain unexamined. Moreover, while collective contributions to career efficacy (CCCE) from different significant others have been viewed as key contributors to adolescent career adaptability, such associations have been rarely approached from a network perspective, leaving potential differential specificity in such links under-detected. To narrow these gaps, this study employed network analysis to investigate the interconnections among career adaptability dimensions and their associations with CCCE from different sources over time. Three-annual-wave longitudinal data were collected from 1,952 Chinese adolescents (15.54 ± 0.54; 43.9% males) across their senior high school years. Results indicated that curiosity and confidence consistently served core functions in the career adaptability network over time. CCCE from parents and teachers exhibited stronger connections with career confidence than CCCE from peers, while peers’ CCCE was closely related to career curiosity. The findings highlight the importance of cultivating adolescents’ career curiosity and confidence to improve career adaptability. The differential specificity in the links between different sources of CCCE and career adaptability dimensions offers insights for designing interventions in family and school settings that are aimed at promoting adolescents’ career adaptability.

  • Stigma Consciousness, Coping Efficacy, and Engineering Persistence Intentions Among Underrepresented Students

    污名意识与应对效能如何影响工程专业坚持,为少数群体学生支持提供实证依据。

    Why selected: 平均 47 分,低于来源门槛 60

    Guided by Social Cognitive Career Theory, this study examined racial/ethnic stigma consciousness and efficacy for coping with educational barriers in relation to engineering persistence intentions among a U.S. sample of 458 engineering students from underrepresented racial/ethnic groups in engineering. SCCT suggests that contextual barriers may shape persistence through self-efficacy and outcome expectations, yet less is known about how the specific contextual variables of stigma-related appraisals and confidence in managing barriers operate within these processes for underrepresented engineering students. Structural equation modeling tested whether stigma consciousness and coping efficacy were associated with persistence intentions through engineering self-efficacy and positive and negative engineering outcome expectations. Stigma consciousness was associated with greater negative outcome expectations but showed no direct association with persistence intentions, and no indirect pathways were significant. In contrast, coping efficacy showed significant indirect associations with persistence intentions through self-efficacy, positive outcome expectations, and their serial pathway. Overall, the findings suggest that anticipated racialized treatment may be more closely associated with the perceived costs of engineering, whereas confidence in managing barriers may support the socio-cognitive beliefs more proximally associated with persistence intentions.
